I find if I am in a warm room, it brings one on. I don't have too many now, but have one every morning when I wake up. I don't know, I just dealt with it.
Thanks, Robin. That's about where I feel I am now. I know we're all different, but it helps to hear from someone who's gone through a similar experience.
